Our gastrointestinal health is influenced by complex interactions between our gut bacteria and multiple external factors. A wider understanding of these concepts is vital to help make gut-friendly decisions in everyday life; however, its complexity can challenge public understanding if not approached systematically. Research suggests that board games can help to playfully navigate complex subjects. We present Gooey Gut Trail (GGT), a board game to help players understand the multifactorial interactions that influence and sustain gut microbial diversity. Through the embodied enactment of in-game activities, players learn how their habits surrounding diet, physical activity, emotions, and lifestyle influence the gut microbial population. A qualitative field study with 15 participants revealed important facets of our game design that increased participants' awareness, causing them to reflect upon their habits that influence gut health. Drawing upon the study insights, we present five design considerations to aid future playful explorations on nurturing human-microbial relationships.

“…Zhou and Lukowicz 15 presented Snacap, a wearable system based on smart fabric and smart sensor data analysis that allows monitoring of snacking behavior, a task that is challenging and of substantial importance in many medical applications (see Figure 1). Also targeting the analysis of eating and especially digesting behavior, Baronetto et al 16 developed GastroDigital-Shirt, a smart shirt for digestion monitoring based on acoustic data captured using smart clothes. Chun et al measured intraoral temperatures and captured relevant inertial measurements for automated dietary FIGURE 2.…”

“…The main advantages of MEMS sensors include compact size, low power consumption, easy integration, and so on. It is of interest that MEMS microphones (silicon microphones) have been used for bowel sound monitoring in some recent studies [32][33][34][35][36] due to their small size and high sensitivity. Wang et al [32] developed a flexible, wearable wireless system using silicon microphone, which could realize long-term, real-time monitoring and analysis of bowel sounds.…”

“…The designed sensor was unwearable and did not facilitate real-time monitoring. Baronetto et al [36] embedded an array with eight MEMS microphones on a T-shirt connected to a wearable computer for capturing bowel sounds generated during digestion. The designed smart T-shirt had some limitations due to the different body sizes of people.…”

Bowel sounds contain some important human physiological parameters which can reflect information about intestinal function. In this work, in order to realize real-time monitoring of bowel sounds, a portable and wearable bowel sound electronic monitor based on piezoelectric micromachined ultrasonic transducers (PMUTs) is proposed. This prototype consists of a sensing module to collect bowel sounds and a GUI (graphical user interface) based on LabVIEW to display real-time bowel sound signals. The sensing module is composed of four PMUTs connected in parallel and a signal conditioning circuit. The sensitivity, noise resolution, and non-linearity of the bowel sound monitor are measured in this work. The result indicates that the designed prototype has high sensitivity (−142.69 dB), high noise resolution (50 dB at 100 Hz), and small non-linearity. To demonstrate the characteristic of the designed electronic monitor, continuous bowel sound monitoring is performed using the electronic monitor and a stethoscope on a healthy human before and after a meal. Through comparing the experimental results and analyzing the signals in the time domain and frequency domain, this bowel sound monitor is demonstrated to record bowel sounds from the human intestine. This work displays the potential of the sensor for the daily monitoring of bowel sounds.
